Biography

For over three seasons Brendan Wayne has played in "Mandalorian" in Disney+'s flagship series as well as the Book of Boba Fett. Wayne grew up amidst Hollywood royalty. From Loretta Young to Maureen O'Hara, Wayne was able to look no further than his own aunts and uncles to derive inspiration. His greatest influence, though, continues to be his grandfather, American legend John Wayne. Knowing the high expectations placed on the Wayne family name, Brendan worked hard to hone his craft. Brendan studied at American Academy of Dramatic Arts and then followed in his grandfather's footsteps by attending film school at the University of Southern California.

Wayne began his professional career opposite David Boreanaz on ANGEL. He started his working relationship with Jon Favreau on COWBOYS AND ALIENS alongside Daniel Craig and Olivia Wilde. Wayne has also recurred on SONS OF ANARCHY and MARVEL'S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. He's particularly proud of his work on ANGEL AND THE BADMAN, a remake of a John Wayne movie. He was thrilled to have been able to participate in breathing new life into a project that his grandfather had a large part in creating.

Brendan dedicates his free time to supporting young women's soccer. He has recently accepted a head coaching position at his local high school. Keeping with his family's Western traditions, Brendan is also an avid horseman. Brendan is a father to three beautiful girls who are his absolute life. He has been happily married for more twenty years to actress and acting coach, Sara Arrington.
